Anybody use their good china and dishes yet?

Original post by rmsgirl

We haven't. It is all packed away until we get a house to put it in. Once in a while, I peek into the boxes.

We have only just started to use our other kitchen gifts now. I guess I thought it was bad luck to use them before the wedding and just never got into the habit of taking them out. DH's favorite is the waffle maker. Mine is our good knives.

What everyday gift are you most excited about? What do you have saved for 'someday'?

We received a couple pieces of our china and fancy flatware...instead of buying it all.. we returned it and still have Bloomies store credit...everyday dishes, 2 entire king sets, a fancy comforter, microwave, toaster oven, blender, and bath towels are stored at my parent's house...we wanted to hold of on using these items until we are in our home

We haven't, & we don't plan to.
We have it at my Uncle's in Storage.

I got 'pretty good' china that is dishwasher safe!!!
I think it is Mikasa...or maybe Lenox.
I love it & use it every day!

No 'great China'. Don't see the point.

we haven't yet. in fact, I still need finish going through all of our place settings and inspect them. We have had quite a few problems with major imperfections with both our china and our flatware. It's been a major annoyance, but we haven't been home on a weekend yet where I can just lay everything out and take stock.

I can't wait to be able to use it though. I love entertaining!

I have a service for 8 and a few serving dishes and haven't used it yet.

I'm still not sure I'm keeping it. I'm afraid I'll never use it. My family never used china- we always had holiday themed paper plates- lol- because there were always a ton of people.

I would like to get the whole set, but can't afford it at the moment (and it isn't even that expensive- but I'd rather go on vacation and save for a house) and I'm afraid it will be discontinued....

I have used my mixer, blender and salad bowls.

Haven't even broken out the everyday dishes yet

We didn't register for 'china'. We got really nice porcelain place settings in place fine china. Haven't been able to use them yet though.

We use our everyday dishes. Its fiestaware and I love the stuff. Our cabinets look so happy and cheery and if we break a plate, SO easy to replace it in the same exact style! I HATE mismatched sets.
